Everyone has their own QB tier ranking list and system. You either love it because your favorite QB is ranked high or hate it because he is ranked low. Not everyone will agree on any QB tier list. That being said here is my own tiers and my own QB tier list. Go ahead and flip to your favorite QB and be the judge yourself.

Absolute Legend

  • Josh Allen: An absolute unit. Massive, fast, strong, big arm. His only flaw? His rough post season record (Most years it's his defense, last year it was him)

  • Patty Mahomes: Had a rough year last year but typically he magics magic out of thin air. He has been the standard for years now.

  • Joey Brrrr: Electric, chill, cool dude with insane ability. Unfortunately, he is the modern-day Andrew Luck. He has the most bizarre injury history and has a reservation for the blue tent almost every year.

  • Lamar Jackson: Elite elusiveness, magic man when playing out there. Not much more to say except a must watch show when he is out there.

  • Matthew Stafford: What more do you need to say. Nasty on the field, can make any throw, and is tough as nails. They don't make them like they used to.

Young Studs

  • Caleb "Ice Man" Williams: The coldest man of 'em all. Huge arm and clutch under the brightest lights. The man has a great future ahead of him and it's going to be perfect Cinema. Chicago's Savior.

  • Jayden Daniels: Precise, elusive and energetic. If he can stay out of harms way he could be the franchise guy. Couple problems, he plays for Washington and he is in a toxic relationship with his mother. Fuckin yikes.

  • Drake "Drake Maye" Maye: Did I write that correctly Patriots fans? This dude is Josh Allen Jr. Hopefully he continues to grow like Josh Allen. His biggest question mark honestly might be can his coach keep his thing in his pants and can his new WRs keep their hands off their chefs?

  • Dottington Bones (Bo Nix): Might be the next Drew Brees. After Russell Wilson, Zach Wilson and Trevor Siemian this has got to be refreshing for Broncos fans. Man can play so well from structure and definitely is set to be a future great player.

Franchise Guy

  • Big Cock Brock: Brock Purdy is the dude for the 49ers. 49ers fans have got to love this man because he made the entire NFL forget that they traded numerous firsts for one of the biggest busts Trey Lance. Thank you, Brock, for making us forget that bad man exists and thank you for saving us from NFL Sundays watching him play.

  • Trevor Lawrence: Who said people can't have a breakout season in year 5. Trevor Lawrence and Liam Cohen have got to be so grateful they found each other. With those long blonde locks what's not to love.

  • Jalen Hurts: Without all the locker room drama it is time to see what this man is really made of. He's won a Superbowl and has shown has got the skill, but can he do it without the locker room diva?

  • Big Sack Dak: This man puts up legendary regular season numbers but come playoff time he becomes the biggest airhead out there. Regular season doesn't mean anything when it comes time for the big dance. Hes got the offensive unit around him this year, is it finally the Cowboys year?

  • Justin Beer: At least I hope he changes his name to Madison Beers last name (His fiance). Justin Herbert is big, strong and got a massive arm. Will the What if man keep his hands off of his fiancé long enough to help the Chargers finally win a playoff game?

  • Sammy D: Sam Darnold is one of those bad franchise survivors. This man had an insane comeback season last year and now looks poised to be the Seahawks guy for years to come.

  • Jared Goff: The most boring, vanilla, make the play QB in the league. This is not a bad thing. He doesn't make many mistakes and makes the correct play. He's perfect for a team with some flashy weapons. Get them the ball and do not mess it up.

Rollercoaster Ride

  • Jordan Love: Big arm and talented but he seems to have some of the bonehead playmaking decisions Brett Farve tended to have. His next play may be an electric 60-yard dart or a trip, toss up, pick six play. This guy has got to be a heart attack to watch.

  • Bryce Young: This man plays like either the smallest man on the field or like he's prime Steve Young. There is no in between. Panther fans have got to be so excited though because his flashes might be the flashiest of flashes. I'm excited to see this man play.

  • Let Him Bake Mayfield: This man has been through Hell and back, and by Hell, I mean Cleveland. This dude is one of the toughest, grittiest, swaggiest QBs out there. His up and downs comes from injuries. This man lowers his shoulder and levels D-lineman like its his last play. Bucs need him to stay safe. Bucs, don't fuck this up!

  • Danny Dimes: Daniel Jones is starting to also look like a terrible team survivor. In some plays he looks like he is going to be running this franchise for the rest of his years but then there is the occasional play where it has you saying "yup, this is the Danny Fumbles that I remember."

Old but Fun

  • Kirko Chainz: Kirk Cousins has got to be the nicest man in the NFL. You love to root for this dude. He is a thief, stealing the amount of money that he has from franchises, but he is always so much fun to root for. "YOU LIKE THAT!"

  • Geno Smith: The only reason he's in this tier is because he is returning to the Jets. The story line is great. The script writers have done it again. The Jets will still probably be terrible but at least we get to see them be terrible with Geno.

Too Young to Tell but I'm Excited

  • Jaxson Dart: This man is a young psychopath. This man plays ball like he has unlimited lives. He has learned too much from that maniac Skattebo. I am excited to see what he becomes. Unfortunately, he has the infamous terrorist Matt Nagy as his offensive Coordinator. Hopefully he survives. I am sorry Jaxson.

  • Tyler Shough: Kellen Moore may have found his guy already. This man doesn't get the love he deserves. If he didn't play for Cap Hell and was able to get more around him than just Olave, I believe this guy would be an ascending player.

  • Cam Ward: This man might be actually crazy but maybe it's the good kind of crazy. This guy will do everything your local high school coach taught you to never do and get away with it because he is so gifted. This man will run and sling a 60-yard ball across his body while jumping and complete it. He has a bright future ahead of him.

Too Young to Tell but Nope

  • Shedussy Sanders: Shedeur Sanders may be a co-starter as of right now, but this man does not seem to have any of the right stuff. He spends more time in the media than he does actually making plays on the field. He is still young and can improve, it is not unheard of, but right now it's a no from me for Shedussy

Elite Backup

  • Malik Willis: This man looked great every time he substituted for Jordan Love last season. In some games he reminded people of a less problematic Michael Vick. This man has been nothing but a backup but he will get his chance in Miami where the team is doing a desperate rebuild. Maybe, just maybe, he can raise this crippled, no star, desperate team on his shoulders.

  • Jacoby Brissett: Who let this man hold the Cardinals hostage by sitting out of practice. Better yet, how did the Cardinals end up in a position where JACOBY BRISSETT held them hostage? This man is a fun and frisky backup but he's acting like he is Tom Brady. Bid starter energy with journeyman backup ability.

  • Kyler Murray: Bet you never guessed this man would be here. The 3-foot 2, Call of Duty loving, new starting QB for the Vikings has big shoes to fill replacing Nine (J.J. McCarthy). Just ask any Vikings fan, Nine was going to be the next John Elway. Kyler Murray has skill but rarely shows it and when he does, they are down 30 with 3 minutes left.

Bruh.....

  • CJ Stroud: This category is reserved for one player. CJ Stroud has had one of the greatest falls from being the next Patty Mahomes to the bottom of the barrel. This man has got to get out of his own head and out of his own way. Wake up CJ.

Put 'Em Down and Out of Their Misery... Please

  • Tua Turndaballova: We all know this man is paying rent for the blue tent. I am not sure if the concussions are why he is always throwing directly at the other team but for some reason the Falcons decided to pick him up to replace their other injury prone QB, so we all get to be the unfortunate ones who get to watch another season of him.

  • Aaron Rodgers: How many more offseasons do we have to suffer with this man playing the will I, won't I retirement game. Just get it over with. He looks like a shell of himself out there and plays like he's allergic to throwing more than just a dinky dunk ball.

Lock Him Up

  • Deshaun Watson: Certified bad guy and bad QB. Don't know if he's a worst guy or a worst QB. It might be even. Great at receiving massages. 2nd best massage receiver behind Robert Kraft.

Rookie

  • Fernando Mendoza: He is going to be riding the pine to start the season but you don't spend the number 1 overall pick on a bckup. He is Kirk Cousins body double. Neon white with that Kohls dad personality. This guy is going to be so easy to root for. He went to the most opposite franchise of his personality and I am here for it. Go light up the league kid!
